California is Punishing Doctors
For COVID "Misinformation" - New Law AB 2098 Starts on January 1, 2023
On September 29, 2022 Carolina Galvan kindly asked me to represent MedicalCensorship.org by going on Real America’s Voice LIVE with host Steve Gruber in Detroit, Michigan. The topic was Medical Freedom, specifically Bill AB 2098 and medical censorship of doctors in California. This was an opportunity I could not turn down, because it was the day before we went to the State Capital Building on the last day Gov. Newsom had to Veto this bill.

From Los Angeles, CA, I spoke on AB 2098 and why doctors oppose medical censorship.
Steve Gruber: California looking to punish doctors who spread “misinformation” on COVID-19 with Assembly Bill 2098… but as you can imagine, some doctors in the state are not taking this lightly, especially when you ask the question,
Who defines misinformation?”
This is an important question, isn’t it?
There is an event taking place tomorrow in support of medical freedom, a medical censorship press conference and we have one of the doctors from the event. We have Dr. Margaret Aranda to discuss it. Doctor, good to have you here.
Me: Hi, thank you so much for inviting me. I appreciate that.
Steve Gruber: So, Does it concern you? I mean, we’ve been through this with COVID and everything else. We’ve been through this with people telling you what’s right and what’s wrong and if you don’t agree with their opinion the “Big Censor” comes out from the social media companies and
“BAM! You’re gone!”
And not we find out that alot of things that were said during COVID by people that were censored and banned and silenced - alot of the things they said were actually true!
“Do you find it uncomfortable that people that sit behind some curtain somewhere can just silence you… or me? Or anyone else when they may or may not know what they’re talking about, and then label it “misinformation”?
“Isn’t that frightening?”
Me: This has been a real awakening for many of us doctors who went into the profession for very wonderful reasons, many of us as a calling from God. And we trusted a lot of authorities to give us proper advice but honestly, never in our medical careers did we ever quote the CDC or the FDA or any other government organizations when discussing or thinking about or analyzing scientific data.
“This has been out of left field.”
And the medical journals - some of them have been pulled down and censored, papers have been accepted and then rejected, editorial boards have resigned over this. And it’s been a big medical quandry for many of us.
Steve Gruber: Yeah. Let me share something with you that brought this, as they would say at the White House, “top of the mind” for me.
From Oxford University, we find this. It was published in the Lancet, Oxford University being the Lancet, and being a respected medical outlet, both the hospital and the Lancet being highly respected. Would you agree? You would agree?
Me: “Absolutely top of the line.
Steve Gruber: Those that are vaccinated increase the infection risk by 44%! This just came out yesterday. If this had been put on the internet six months ago or a year ago, it would have been silenced, the people would have been ridiculed. This would have been labeled as “misinformation” when in fact, the truth about vaccinations and a lot of things we’re dealing with were hidden from us.
“As a consumer of information, Doctor, this scares the daylights out of me. Being as a medical professional, it’s got to be worse.”
Me: Well that’s why so many of us are standing up for what we believe to be truth, and fighting back against things like this particular bill, AB 2098. Because not only will it regulate what we can say in the office when we are alone with a patient, but it can cause us to lose our medical license, to get it revoked, for simply discussing options.
And the real quandry about that is, as Carolina Galvan and MedicalCensorship.org have constantly been working on since she founded the organization in February of 2020, is to allow doctors like Dr. Peter McCullough, Robert Malone, Paul Marik, Pierre Kory, Ryan Cole, etc., to have a voice that could not be censored through alternative media.
Steve Gruber: Right, that’s so important because now, if you go to the CDC website, and this is another example, and citing the doctors on the list you just put forward, a good list of the folks that were silenced or attempted to be silenced by social media and other outlets.
Ivermectin is now listed under the CDC’s website as something that is being studied for effectiveness! Well that’s weird, because I thought that ivermectin was, you know, taken by people, you know, who were functionally illiterate and couldn’t function in the real world, who had dull-normal IQ’s and so forth!
The fact of the matter is, it does have clinical value; they’re studying it!
And yet, Dr. McCullough and Dr. Malone and all of the others who talked about these possibilities … were silenced!
This does… this cannot stand. Let me ask you this, because this is a term I like to use a lot, doctor.
It’s “settled science.” There’s nothing to discuss here.
Is science always settled, or we can continue to look for more answers and dig deeper, and science is a matter of figuring out what comes next. And could we be wrong about something?
I mean, could the earth actually be round and not flat?
Doesn’t science “evolve” sometimes?
Me: Absolutely, it does, and that’s the beautiful thing about medicine. It has been such that we were encouraged to critique, go to Journal Club where we actually sit in medical school, internship, residency and Fellowship and look at the latest, dissect it from beginning to end, agree with one sentence, disagree with another, see if the statistics were correct, and see if the conclusion had nothing to do with the data that was presented.
And many of us wrote NIH Grants and were forced to “follow the system” in order to get funding to study different things.
So now all of a sudden, the CDC makes a statment and expects 100% of the doctors to do whatever they say, when we were not trained that way.
We’re not robots.”
To be in a room with a patient requires informed consent. If they need a medication, if they need a procedure or a study, anything that involves their human body, it is their right to understand informed consent.
The reason AB 2098 is so particularly bad is that it would prevent us from doing that discussion that includes risks, benefits and alternatives for the general population, as well as particular risks, benefits and alternatives for the specific patient, given their history, their age, their co-morbidities, etc.
No one can tell us how to do that with one patient! Everybody’s different!
Steve Gruber:
Doctors should be allowed to be doctors.
Dr. Margaret Aranda. Thank you for being here. I greatly appreciate your input today.
Me: Thank you so very much and I appreciate ReclaimingMed.org and some of the other organizations putting this together and helping to spread word and make the public more aware. I appreciate that, thank you.
Steve Gruber:
Awareness is good. Voices are good. Thank you.
Note: I will post events from the next day, Friday, September 30th, 2022, on the steps of the Capital Building in Sacramento, CA. A bunch of us doctors, lawyers, and activists pleaded with the Governor to Veto AB 2098. Instead, he signed it into law that evening.
This fight is far from over.
